Rule 1. Please keep all discussion relevant to PlayStation consoles, games and services.

Rule 2. Lemmy.zip allows NSFW content but I’d rather keep this a safe community for gamers of all ages so please don’t post adult content here.

That’s it for the rules.

A cooling stand is a pretty useless thing in my mind.

I might be wrong, but the best case scenario is that it’s just useless and the worst case scenario is that it’s detrimental to the natural airflow of the console.

Yeah, the PS5 only dissipates what, 130 watts give or take? I’d be more focused on putting it in a spot where it can intake and exhaust plenty of fresh air than some kind of aftermarket accessory

Also, I’ve worked support for older consoles, and I’ve seen those cooling units straight up choke off airflow and kill consoles
